Galante coverage unfair to Galante

The News-Times should be ashamed of itself. You have tried and convicted James Galante on a daily basis.

You have a responsibility to report the news but you are using the sensational quality of this story to sell papers and disregarding the fact that this case has yet to be tried. Front page coverage, every single day, is going way too far.

Please take stock of your responsibilities. You owe the public the news, but you also owe each member of this community a fair hand.

You have not been fair to James Galante or his family and I am ashamed of this paper every single morning when I wake up to another self-serving front page headline.
